Roman blinds in square bay windows are a tricky proposition. The most obvious problem is that the folds of the side blinds will, without careful positioning, clash with those of the central blind when fully raised – and if you leave a gap between the blinds to counteract this, the chances are there will be ...
We’ve blogged before about the challenges you face when putting together window treatments for bifold doors. We faced a fairly typical situation with a client in Clapham just before Christmas – who wanted a window treatment for their kitchen bifolds. The total width of the doors was 3.8metres which included a stacking space of 60cms. ...
Another week, and another installation at Canary Wharf – this time at Belgrave Court, Westferry Circus. Quite an interesting one as it draws together a few different products from the world of soft furnishings – that work so well in apartments. Silhouette Shades for the Closet and Study: I’m going to be honest and say ...
Shutters are a great option for a contemporary space where you’re striving for that uncluttered look, or for tricky arched windows – and the way their blades can be tilted makes them in many ways more versatile than more traditional window treatments such as curtains or blinds. But this versatility can also present a problem. ...
Here’s why laminated blinds exist: A neighbour has helpfully felled some tall trees in their garden, suddenly bathing your sitting room and kitchen in dazzling sunlight that you never thought you’d be entitled to. Lovely you might think. But then you realise that there are times during the day when the sunlight needs to be ...
As we bid farewell to London Fashion Week for another year, we reflect back on a week where Moghul was touched by a little bit of fashion greatness. A couple of weeks ago we had a call from an award winning London fashion house. The brief was to curtain the wall of their Shoreditch showroom ...
We often get enquiries about wide roman blinds, and after blogging about this some time ago it seems only right to bring back the topic this month. Window manufactuers are forever raising the bar (if you pardon the pun) with their innovative products (think bifold doors for example), and the proportions of these more often ...
We were faced with something of a conundrum last week when fitting two pairs of curtains in a redeveloped apartment on the 9th floor of Horizon Building, Canary Wharf. Our client had six large windows spanning the width of her sitting room and had ordered a pair of silk curtains, with sheers hanging behind. Each ...
The genius of the bifold: Bifold doors should be at the top of the wish list for any kitchen or other living space renovation. They fill the room with light and provide stunning and uninterrupted views of your garden, terrace or swimming pool. In short, they bridge the gap between the living and outside areas, ...
The challenge was as epic as the proportions of the room itself – to produce and install a curtain pole over 26 metres in length around the gradually curving wall of one of London’s newest and most exclusive hotel restaurants. The computer generated images produced by the design team illustrated beautifully what the client required, ...
